Step 3. Install the Communications Software
After applying power to the computer, install the Galil software that enables communication between the I/O
board and your PC. It is strongly recommended to use the Galil software “GalilTools” when communicating
to the RIO unit. Please see the GalilTools Manual for a complete description of how to install and connect to
Serial or Ethernet controllers.

Step 4. Establish Communications between RIO and the Host PC
Communicating to the RIO using Galil Software
RS-232:
To use serial communication, connect a 9pin
straight-through RS-232 cable
(CABLE-9-PIND) between the
serial port of the RIO and the computer or terminal communications port. The RIO serial port is configured
as DATASET.
Ethernet:
Connect the RIO Ethernet port to your computer via a crossover Ethernet cable, or to a network hub with a
straight through Ethernet cable.
Using Non-Galil Communication Software
RS-232:
The RIO serial port is configured as DATASET. The computer or terminal must be configured as a for full
duplex, no parity, 8 data bits, one start bit and one stop bit. A standard Windows HyperTerminal session can
connect to the controller using a straight-through serial cable.
Check to insure that the baud rate jumpers have been set to the desired baud rate as described above. Also,
the hardware handshake lines (RTS/CTS) need to be connected. See Chapter 3 for more information on
‘Handshake Modes.’
Ethernet:
Connect the RIO Ethernet port to your computer via an Ethernet crossover cable, or to a network hub by a
straight through Ethernet cable. An IP address needs to be assigned via a DHCP server, through Galil
software, or via a serial cable using the IA command. See Chapter 3 for more information on how to
establish an IP address. Once an IP address is established, a standard Windows Telnet session can connect to
the controller.
* Note that the RIO-471x2 supports auto-crossover detection (auto MDIX)
Sending Test Commands to the Terminal after a successful Connection
After connecting to the computer or terminal, press <carriage return> or the <enter> key on the keyboard. In
response to carriage return {CR}, the controller responds with a colon, :
